Re: Ubisoft UK Warns That Folks Just Aren't Buying As Many £50-£60 Games Anymore

Chip-Douglas

Everything is so expensive nowadays I'm not surprised for the vast majority of people gaming is simply a hobby there are more important things to spend money on!
Games go on sale quickly enough nowadays aswell!
Personally unless it's a must play game for me I'm not going to buy the game full price day one Helldivers 2 would be my last must play game!
Also the rise in subscription services like gamepass and ps plus would play a part!
There's not many games worth the price tag day one anymore!

@abe_hikura Yeah hit and run was a great game back in the day I remember even enjoying the other Simpsons game out around that time it was one of the first games I bought for than gen.
And yeah I was trying to convince my daughter to play some last night so I could see what it was like haha she was having none of it though wanted to watch kpop demon hunters on Netflix instead!!
Kids have no respect these days haha ✌️

Re: Hands On: Black Ops 7 Is Amazing On The ROG Xbox Ally X, As Long As You're Not Offline

@carlos82 Yeah I totally agree with you there it would be better if you could play offline but theres loads of games out there with the exact same online model maybe there's just more shock because it's cod,s first time doing this??
And yeah definitely wait for a sale if you're into the campaign it is fun to play but the story is nonsensical and I'd pass it altogether if you're planning on playing solo in my opinion it would just be a slog to play especially in the open world area's!
Black ops 6 was far superior in every aspect from what I've played of the game so far!

Re: Hands On: Black Ops 7 Is Amazing On The ROG Xbox Ally X, As Long As You're Not Offline

@carlos82 Well it is always online my dude and there are many games where it works the exact same as cod is working this year it's nothing new or shocking tbh maybe there are reasons it won't work solo I honestly don't know or care because I'm just enjoying the game as it is rather than moaning about it tbh!
Besides I can't even remember the last time I had to game offline in the past few years so for the most part it's a mute point!
In this day and age people just love to p**s and moan about anything and everything!
I'm not saying you are personally but a lot of people are about trivial changes in my opinion!
The multiplayer was always the reason people bought this game now it's the campaign apparently??
I'll just enjoy the game move onto another one when I'm finished the cod campaign I just think the whole end of days vibe about simple changes to the game is laughable I've played much worse games released this year haha!

Re: Hands On: Black Ops 7 Is Amazing On The ROG Xbox Ally X, As Long As You're Not Offline

@themightyant It's a co-op campaign literally says it in the games menu so it's actually a co-op campaign that can be played solo so it's not a single player game!
Like Helldivers 2 you can play solo if you want but it's a online co-op game in reality that must be online exactly the same as cod they were never selling this as a solo campaign it's been heavily covered that would not be the case at all with the game.✌️

Re: Xbox Dev Obsidian Says It Hasn't Used Generative AI 'At All' So Far

Chip-Douglas

I myself don't have a problem with the use of AI to help develop games once the quality of the product doesn't suffer because of it!
The development of games nowadays is painfully slow so anything to speed it up should be used!
AI is going to be used more and more in things in the coming years it's just going to happen 100%!
Being outraged about it's use just seems like a waste of energy and time to me!

Re: Poll: What Are Your First Impressions Of Black Ops 7 On Xbox Game Pass?

Chip-Douglas

8/10 for me I've mostly just played the campaign and I'm having fun with it so far I might be in the minority but it's really fun with other players and I've only been playing with randoms!
If anyone is looking to play it solo I wouldn't I could imagine it being a slog that way!
I'm not into the new zombies map at all and I haven't played enough multiplayer to have an opinion yet!
Definitely not as good as black ops 6 though for me on any level except probably resolution and graphics!

Re: Black Ops 7 Campaign Review (Xbox): Black Ops Pedigree Can't Save This Mess Of A COD Campaign

Chip-Douglas

@BAMozzy Yeah I don't really get the hate for cod trying something different and if people are into the end game there would most likely be big updates probably new areas!
Plus I really like that you can go up levels and level up your guns in it for multiplayer!
Tbh there's a lot more negative mindsets to this game now Microsoft owns it but it is what it is ha🤷

Re: Black Ops 7 Campaign Review (Xbox): Black Ops Pedigree Can't Save This Mess Of A COD Campaign

Chip-Douglas

I played a bit of the campaign and honestly for me it's not to bad kinda fun actually!!
You definitely need to play it with people solo it would be terrible but it's fun so far!
The actual story is bat s**t crazy aswell definitely doesn't feel like any cod campaign I've played but I'll be jumping back on for a couple chapters later today!
I've definitely played worse than this campaign!

Re: Black Ops 7 Campaign Review (Xbox): Black Ops Pedigree Can't Save This Mess Of A COD Campaign

Chip-Douglas

I'm really disappointed by this I loved last years cod campaign it was brilliant!
Just like a 80s/90s action film so much fun!
Why do this to the next year's campaign I know the multiplayer is the heart and soul of the games but a lot of people enjoy playing though the campaign aswell!!
I'll still try it but it if it's as disappointing as the review says I'll probably have it uninstalled by later tonight!!
